A name can be the foreshadowing of what to expect. And that’s what <strong><a href="https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/32-market-street-tee" target="_blank">32 Market Street Tee</a></strong> is all about. From these humble beginnings was borne a great leader.<br /><br />Now, let’s talk bout the choices we make to get us to the end goal we want. We know that Garvey sought to unify and connect people of African descent worldwide. Despite your feelings on Garvey’s view and how he went about his activism - Universal Negro Improvement Association, a fraternal organization of black nationalists, a group that advocated for “separate but equal” status for persons of African ancestry, and sought to establish independent black states around the world on the west coast of Africa, despite whether you agree or not, given how Black people were and are treated, you can understand why he wanted to protect his people.<br /><br /><span style="font-size: 18px;">And it’s that mindset that I approach all my designs, right? We can agree to disagree while acknowledging the underlying reasoning.<br /><br /><a href="https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/32-market-street-tee" rel="nofollow" style="color: #007c89;" target="_blank"><img height="600" src="https://ecp.yusercontent.com/mail?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmcusercontent.com%2F77f981f1b839551e229c2e524%2Fimages%2Fd9f778bb-6942-4d01-a99f-19a727adba73.jpeg&t=1601556339&ymreqid=388e0341-358e-d0a1-1c81-030001017400&sig=I7POsgfB4oUEMqQgSlnlxg--~D" style="border: 0px; height: auto; margin: 0px; min-height: 600px; outline: none; text-decoration-line: none; text-indent: -9999px; width: 450px;" width="450" /></a></span><br /><br />As such, when I recommend KnitCircus Yarn Greatest of Ease (fingering weight) for this design. Sure, you may not want to use this yarn for whatever reason. You might have a different color in mind that works better for your skin tone. And that’s okay. You might decide, heck, I don’t want to use fingering weight, and again, that’s your choice. In the voice of <a href="https://blogspot.us10.list-manage.com/track/click?u=77f981f1b839551e229c2e524&id=36af932bed&e=c17f5b4704" rel="nofollow" style="color: #007c89;" target="_blank">Tabitha Brown</a>, <em><strong>that’ your business</strong></em>.<br /><br />But we can all agree to appreciate the underlying reasoning for the choices made for the sample and not make it mean anything - good or bad - if you choose something else. So, if you want to use <a href="https://shrsl.com/2j8r5" rel="nofollow" style="color: #007c89;" target="_blank"><strong>Knit Picks Hawthorne</strong></a> or a more budget-friendly brand, go for it.<br /><br />You have the ability to choose what works for YOU!

If you’ve had your eye on the <a href="https://blogspot.us10.list-manage.com/track/click?u=77f981f1b839551e229c2e524&id=d95c9b45f8&e=56b44b44b2" style="color: #007c89;" target="_blank">32 Market Street Tee</a> and haven’t pre-ordered yet, get it by noon ET today, Thursday, before the price goes up.

So, like I mentioned last week, the name of the tee is paying homage to my heritage and social justice and to not being able to travel.<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogspot.us10.list-manage.com/track/click?u=77f981f1b839551e229c2e524&id=145d97b42e&e=56b44b44b2" style="color: #007c89;" target="_blank"><img data-file-id="4592537" height="500" src="https://mcusercontent.com/77f981f1b839551e229c2e524/images/09151918-c748-4ebb-ac0c-a14d4c3d1e9d.jpeg" style="border: 0px; height: 500px; margin: 0px; outline: none; text-decoration: none; width: 500px;" width="500" /></a><br /><br /><strong><br /></strong></p><p style="line-height: 24px; margin: 10px 0px; padding: 0px;">When I started this design, the pandemic hadn’t hit yet. I had grand plans for the summer which this tee was going to be center stage. But with traveling not an option and to support all the social justice work happening around Black Lives Matter (let me be clear here that Black Lives Matter… my life, the lives of my son and my brothers and sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc., the lives of these and all Black people matter at the bare minimum, so if you don’t believe that Black Lives Matter, this is definitely not the space for you). Anyways, with everything happening around race, and the need to dismantle the patriachy and white supremacy, I wanted to create a piece that could shine a light on important social issues. A piece that could encapsula what I'm feeling and what many are feeling.<br /> <br />With that being said, a few of you guessed correctly that the pattern name’s reference to <a dir="ltr" href="x-apple-data-detectors://4" style="font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; line-height: inherit !important; text-decoration-color: rgba(127, 127, 127, 0.380392);" x-apple-data-detectors-result="4" x-apple-data-detectors-type="address" x-apple-data-detectors="true">32 Market Street</a>. If you guessed that it’s the birthplace of Marcus Mosiah Garvey, Jamaica’s first National Hero, you are correct. What I love about Garvey’s story is his humble beginnings and his desire to serve his people and fight for justice. And with the <a dir="ltr" href="x-apple-data-detectors://5" style="font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; line-height: inherit !important; text-decoration-color: rgba(127, 127, 127, 0.380392);" x-apple-data-detectors-result="5" x-apple-data-detectors-type="address" x-apple-data-detectors="true">32 Market Street</a> Tee, that’s the type of feeling I wanted to bring to the design. Its simple construction is reminiscent of Garvey’s humble beginnings. The bold statement the lace pattern on the front illustrates how from simple beginnings you can make a big impact. And quite frankly, you have to have to have some confidence to wear this tee and it leaves little hidden if you choose (wink, wink).<br /><br />So, while you might be thinking “what can I do as just one person” in this environment, start with believing you CAN achieve a lot.<br /> <br /><em><span style="font-size: 18px;">"If you have no confidence in self, you are twice defeated in the race of life." ~ Marcus Garvey</span></em><br /> <br />I’ll be sharing more about the construction and yarn choices next week.

Getting out of your own head and figuring out the right thing to do. You don't want to make a mistake and look foolish. You don't want to head in what might be the wrong direction. You don't want your spouse to say "I told you so" or that "you're wasting time and money" when you could be taking care of him and the kids.<br /><br />Look, women are here for more than being a baby factory and for taking care of the men in our lives. We are whole humans with needs and desires and aspirations. I know we're raised to be caretakers of everyone BESIDES ourselves. Society tells us that if we deviate from what is expected and pursue something we want or even have a desire for more than what is the bare minimum, then we are bad people, we are bad wives, we're bad mothers. We need to bust that myth. You can start a business and still be a good mother. You can out-earn your husband and still be a good wife. You can hire help for your elderly parents and still be a good daughter and caregiver. You can take a break and focus on you and still be a good person.<br /><br />So, what do you want? What is that thing you've been putting off that you THINK you need permission?</p><p style="background-color: white; color: #202020; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin: 10px 0px; padding: 0px;"><br />If you are scared to take that first step, don't be ashamed. You are not alone. As a business strategist and mentor, I work with women just like you every day with the mindset shifting work that is necessary to start believing what is possible, because if you don't believe you're worthy, nothing is possible. I also do the strategist work with women to put into place the tangible action steps in place to turn their expensive hobbies and ideas into profitable businesses.<br /><br />So, if this is you.

I help our clients (women business owners) build the foundation of their
businesses, we’re focusing on Building Your Brand. We are teaching our members
how to use the simple framework to amplify their offer and their brand, by leading
with the value. </p><p class="MsoNormal">In the economical environment, we’re in right now, it’s ever-important for women, particularly Black women and women and color, to be able to generate income outside of the “stable” 9-5 because we know those jobs are not secure. They can evaporate in a blink of an eye. We need to be able to generate revenue from a diversified stream of income.</p>When I learned how to lead with the value of my offer with
authenticity and love and thoughtfulness, that when it all changed.<o:p></o:p><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It meant that I had to pull back on the bro-y tactics I was
studying. It means to tap into my body and really lead with what felt right for
me. And that’s when it all started to click into place. For a long time, I was
just going through the motions. I believed the old Fields of Dreams saying that
“if I built it, they would come” meaning that my work would and should speak
for itself without any intervention on my part. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And I used that tactic because I was afraid to be visible. I
was happy to stand in the shadows with a hope and a prayer that things would
just magically happen. And, surprise! It didn’t happen. People weren’t knocking
down the doors to get my offer, so I made more. Surely, the forums were right
that I just need to keep posting new products every hour on the hour,
regardless if anything sold, right? And when THAT didn’t work, I felt like the
biggest loser, not knowing it wasn’t the product. Instead, it was me not
sharing the value of what I have to offer to the right people. It was me hiding
in the shadows and not sharing how the thing I offer could transform their lives.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Over the last 10+ years, I’ve learned a lot and have shared
a lot in books and courses because I know how important it is to be able to generate
an income doing the work I love. I’ve been able to generate income that put
food on the table, a roof over our heads, savings in the bank, a retirement
plan, and more.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XPdYBG3E_iM/XwXaNbomFOI/AAAAAAAACiU/mXsisthFXqIj6HuPb-6Ot_pMy5B2pQxBACK4BGAsYHg/s6000/dan-gold-aJN-jjFLyCU-unsplash.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4000" data-original-width="6000" height="266" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XPdYBG3E_iM/XwXaNbomFOI/AAAAAAAACiU/mXsisthFXqIj6HuPb-6Ot_pMy5B2pQxBACK4BGAsYHg/w400-h266/dan-gold-aJN-jjFLyCU-unsplash.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><p class="MsoNormal">Setting those foundations in place to sell what you offer
with confidence so you can generate consistent and predictable income is what
matters. When you work with me, I teach you how to go fish for those sales, how
to make the offer, so you can make big money moves. </p><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Get on the email list to be notified when the membership opens up again.

It was from an early Interweave Knits magazine. It was a top-down raglan cardigan without buttons or a button bands, with short sleeves, so perfect, right? I’d hype myself up for this. I’d read through the instructions like 10 times. I’d picked out the yarn I thought was perfect, and at the time, it was perfect. It was what I could afford for the quantity that if I messed up, it wouldn’t be too bad. I wouldn’t feel too bad. And that’s real! Anyways, I remember it was going to be a long holiday weekend coming up, so I psyched myself up because this was going to be good.</span></div>

I was so hung up on whether I could do it, whether I could actually knit this pattern, I never thought to see if I would be able to make it in my size. And that’s where the rubber really hit the road for this pattern. I had the pattern and yarn. I was a good knitter. I made a swatch, but I couldn’t find a size that fit me; my body.</span></div>

This lack of available sizes broke me and my self-confidence.</span></h3>

I didn’t know how to modify patterns to make them fit my massively ugly body (that’s how I felt, like a monster when patterns only go up to a 40” or 46” bust) or how to adjust my gauge. All I really knew was how to follow the instructions. I knew how to follow the experts, the designers, because they knew about sizing, even though they didn’t really cater to me and others like me. </span></div>

I was sad for a very long time. It was a very long time before I even thought to try to knit a sweater again. </span></div>

I was able to do this after studying a lot of patterns and through lots of trial and error, using hats and small accessories to figure out how to adjust patterns, any pattern, to get the fit I </span><strong style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">want</em></strong><span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">. This was a powerful moment in my knitting and designing life. Figuring this out is what brought me back, or rather, expanded my love of knitting and crocheting.</span></div>

But that the pattern was the problem for not including a wide-enough range of sizes to accommodate even the average woman size, that was a powerful turning point.</span></div>

Well, the truth is that I’m sharing this story because the problem wasn’t me. The problem still isn’t me, or you. The problem is with the pattern.</span></div>

Even if your size is given, I want you to have the tools to be able to make it fit your body perfectly.</span></div>

But I’ve made it super simple with the easy to follow the framework. So, regardless of whether you’re following a pattern or creating from scratch, you have everything you need to make it fit. My goal is for you to never feel ashamed of your body, the body that’s supporting you even though some might deem it as not ideal. You are perfect just the way you are, and your knitting and crocheting should fit perfectly.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Happy Wednesday. How is your week going? I hope you’re having a productive and FUN week. </span></div>

It’s almost 9am here on the east coast and as I’m sitting down to a cup of tea before heading into my office to start the day, I’m looking around at my kitchen and thinking how blessed I am. Now, my kitchen is nothing fancy, but what I’m thinking about is the FREEDOM I have in my day. </div>

I set my own schedule and I don’t leave the house if I don’t want to, except to pick up grocery and o<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: inherit;">ur laundry service because neither pickup/deliver (aww, living in the sticks). Thanks to podcasters like <a href="https://www.instagram.com/bizchixpodcast/" target="_blank">@bizchixpodcast</a> and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/rachrodgersesq/" target="_blank">@rachrodgersesq</a> who empower women to outsource household chores to make room for life and family. 2020 I finally listened and now I have more time for other more worthwhile things than separating the whites! </span></div>

Anyways, I say all that to say, 10 years ago, I didn’t, nay, I couldn’t imagine this life where I work on amazing projects and get to meet wonderful people like you all, while having the freedom to make dinner every night, be home when the teen gets home (that’s a biggie), and all the other family stuff we do. </div>
<br />

So, if you’re struggling. You’re just banging your head on the wall (or the desk in your cubicle, or crying in the bathroom at work again - no judgment, gurl, I have been there!) because nothing is working, you’re stuck and can’t find a way out, there is a better way. </div>

<div class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: large;">First, know you’re not alone. </span></div>

Second, dry your eyes, leave the bathroom (wash your hands first). </div>

<span style="font-size: large;">PHASE 1:</span> Start with a brain dump of what an ideal day would look like if you were doing the work you were called to do. Nothing is too small. Nothing is too silly. Just open up and really imagine your perfect day. </div>

<span style="font-size: large;">PHASE 2:</span> Take that very next step. Is it a coach/mentor, taking a course, creating more content? Maybe you know or don’t know the next step. That is your homework, to figure out your next step. What you’ve done before hasn’t worked. So do something different. Ask for help.<br />

And this is why I believe so much in coaching because while you can do it alone, but imagine going through the jungle and facing all the wild animals and traps and vines, you slashing away and getting turned around because you missed a turn on the map. You’re still heading towards the mountain, but your path looks like a zig zag. Now, imagine that trip through the jungle with a guide that’s done the trek a thousand times and can show you the shortcuts and the areas on the trail to avoid. </div>

<span style="font-size: large;">THAT IS WHAT COACHING IS! Having a support partner to help guide you along the way.</span></div>

Now, I say this ALL the time, and if you’ve done any coaching with me you’ve heard this a million times and I will continue to say it forever because it applies - give yourself some grace to learn and make mistakes. Don’t beat yourself and quit just because it was as perfect as you had in your head. Just keep moving forward, one small step in front of the other and you’ll reach your goals.</div>

Can you relate?<span style="color: transparent;"> </span>Gurl, you are not alone. This is a common struggle for many designers that I work with.</div>

Here’s the reality, if you’re only making sales when you release a new pattern and your portfolio of existing designs are just sitting there collecting dust, then you need the <span style="color: #000015;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Pattern-Launch-Plan-patterns-consistently/dp/1986960285" target="_blank">Pattern Launch Plan</a></span> (book). Pattern Launch Plan is a step-by-step marketing and promotional strategy plan to get you from overwhelmed to being a boss. </div>

Pattern Launch Plan is not an overnight fix, but it will give you the tools to start making revenue consistently so you can get off that “constantly releasing new patterns to make a sale” hamster wheel and learn how to make consistent sales without being sleazy. </div>

Now it’s your turn? Are you struggling with pattern sales? Are you creating and releasing new patterns because THAT is the only way you’re getting sales?

<span style="font-size: 16px;">But the truth is, you’re putting way too much pressure on yourself.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: arial,helvetica neue,helvetica,sans-serif;">This one opportunity, the submission to the top crochet magazine or working with that uber-popular yarn company everyone is clambering for, while all great, will NOT make or break your design career.<br />
<br /><span style="font-size: large;">It rarely happens that way. </span>
<br />Let’s be honest, that one accepted proposal will move you forward, but it isn’t going to cause the pearly gates of heaven to open and the angels come down with their trumpets saying “you’re a massive success now”.<br />
<br />No, it doesn’t happen like that. So, stop waiting for your big break and start breaking the rules and status quo! Stop waiting and start doing.<br />
<br />It’s not about hitting that one single home run, but rather being brave to go up to bat over and over, even where you’re scared, and doing your best to get on base.<br />
<br />Just keep doing the work... your best work every time. And trust that if it’s meant to be then it will be.<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />Make it about giving and being valuable and you’ll win every time.</span><br />

Whenever traveling, I love finding those special and out of the way spots that just takes your breath away. Frome, a small village, located on the west coast of Jamaica, is one of those spots. <br />
This cowl is named Frome because, like the village, it is beautiful in its simplicity. It’s perfect for a beginner or experienced knitter looking for a quick finish project.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This pattern is free to Patreon supporters. Click <a href="https://www.patreon.com/TianConnaughton" target="_blank">here</a> for more information.</span><br />
<b></b><span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<b>PATTERN NOTES</b><br />
Frome is a fun cowl worked in the round in a simple mosaic stitch pattern. Never worked mosaic pattern before? This is a great beginner-friendly pattern. Mix and match your two favorite colors for your perfect combination.<br />
<h3>
<br />CUSTOMIZE IT!<br />In the instructions for this pattern, I’ve included a chart to help you modify the pattern for your gauge. The amount of yarn required will change.</h3>
